Hello everyone! Have something a little different going on here today so have fun looking!

"Inspired by an article in a Paper Crafts magazine, Pamela of FireCracker Designs by Pamela issued a challenge to her Design Team to see how they could make a card that was already great to start with, into something that really "POP's". You can read her blog entry about it here if you missed it BUT, don't forget to come back and finish reading this post and find out how to get a chance at some blog candy at the end!

I decided that a sentiment on the front would be one way to finish it off and I liked that this one referred to standing strong and being firm just like a tree is. I layered on black cs and also used my gold EP to edge the paper like Julie did :)

Julie - I hope you like what I did - sorry to have to cover the moon up some but I didn't have many sentiments to work with :)

For my Step one card I made this card and I sent it to Libby who had the task of making it "POP"

Now, just like you need to, I have to follow the link to see what she did with it.

I can't wait to find out!

**Please be sure to follow the links from all the DT members' blogs

full circle back to Pamela's for a chance to win some great blog candy!"

I think you did a wonderful job with the already pretty card!! :) Fabulous idea to add the sentiment to it!! It's in the perfect place!! Now I need to see your cute little step-1 card transformed! :) This is fun!! Have a wonderful weekend friend!! Love your new look BTW!! :)

Karyn, you did great! I would have felt exactly like you did with that card - Seriously? LOL! This was a tough one because it was already perfect, but you really shined with the addition of the quote with the perfect frame and gold touches! Nice work - it POPs without competing with the original design! :o)LOVE your cute crow card! Can't wait to see what was done with it! Off to the next hop to find out!Ursula
